AFP - Jordanians are suspicious about US weapons and troops being deployed to the kingdom, even if Washington seeks to help its ally protect itself from a possible spillover of Syrian violence, experts say.

Worried about the security of Jordan, which is already struggling to cope with around 550,000 refugees from its war-torn northern neighbour, the United States has kept F-16 warplanes and Patriot missiles in the country since a joint military exercise ended on June 20.

A US defence official has told AFP that Washington has expanded its military presence in the country to 1,000 troops.

I am still around, but like I have said, consequences are keeping my lips sealed tight for the most part. At some point I will be back in my old form and the alphabets can the fuck off, but until then, I am buying time.

Seems life is also trying to ruin things too, my wife has a large mass causing paralysis. I have had to watch a physically fit woman crawl and limp. She cannot drive. We thought it was a bulging disc for 12 weeks. Now we must play the waiting game to find out what this mass is. G-d is in control but the lessons to learn are confusing to say the least, why my children may have to learn about how precious life is and how cruel it can be too is not something to look forward to.

Back on topic.Something to keep you all connecting the dots to impending war doom for Israel.

Amazing the egyptians.

There are people, who harrass and violate women on the streets, there are sharia courts springing up, vaginal circumsision is on the rise, there are people trying to impose US backed moslim brotherhood rule.

And then, they go out and resist. RESIST.

Amazing the egyptians.

If only some people on this board with their flag saying "freedom", would have the courage of the egyptians and resist.
